Calendar on phone not showing birthdays

HELP.... All by birthdays show up on mobile me and on my computer just not on my phone......

I too cannot see birthdays on the iphone, however they are showing in ical being drawn from my macbook contacts. Because they are selected in sync preferences they appear in mobileme (as a subscribed) calendar. They do not appear in my list of calendars on the iphone.
I have tried the suggestion made by abellan which made no difference, and am confused and would be grateful of any clarification, because I have been recently to the genius bar recently re this and one genius said it could be done but would get another genius to show me how. The second genius said it could not be done?
I have also already submitted feedback to apple on this but for clarification can it be viewed through the phone or is it a "wish list" item?
Thanks for any help

  • TS4050 I am running Windows 8. Although my contacts and notes from my Ipod touch show up on icloud my calendar entries do not show up even though they do show up in my Google calendar and my windows phone calendar. Any suggestions not already covered?

    As I mentioned earlier, you have to decide which calendar you want to use.  You can either use Google or iCloud, but not both.
    If you want to use your iCloud calendar, go to Settings>Mail,Contacts,Calendars>Default Account (in the Calendar section) and set this to your iCloud calendar.  After doing so, all new events you add to your calendar will be added by default to your iCloud calendar, and as a result, will appear on icloud.com and your computer (if it is syncing calendars with your iCloud account).
    If, on the other hand, you want to use your Google calendar (as it sounds like you are doing with your iPod), simply add the same Google calendar to your phone and your computer.

  • My Iphone calendar events are not showing up in iCal when I sync? Syncing has not been an issue till today?

    My Iphone calendar events are not showing up in iCal when I sync? Syncing has not been an issue till today?

    I found this tip from a 2011 discussion on the same topic.
    Open iCal and backup or export your entries. Make a note of the fie name and location, you're going to need them in a minute. Once your backup/export is completed, close the iCal application.
    Open Finder and remove everything inside the "Username/Library/Calendars" folder. For instance, if your username is "Joe", then move everything inside the "Joe/Library/Calendars" folder.
    Open the iSync application. It's located in the "/Applications/" folder. Once iSync is opened, go into the iSync Preferences (iSync -> Preferences) and push/click the "Reset Sync History" button. Then, close the iSync application.
    Re-Open the iCal application and Import (File -> Import) a new calendar. When prompted, use your notes from Step #1 to select the file your created earlier. Once completed, close the iCal application (you should have all of your calendar entries back.)
    Open the iTunes application and connect your Apple iPhone to the computer.
    Within the Advanced section of the Info tab for the Apple iPhone, check the box the overwrites/replaces the Calendar data on the Apple iPhone.
    Click the Apple/Sync button. New, modified and deleted entries should now be syncing correctly.
    That's it! You should be all set and iTunes, iCal and our Apple iPhone should all be playing nicely as friends again. We've used the exact method to repair our own Apple iPhone at least once... maybe even twice.

  • Reminder and Calendar app info not showing up in Today View

    Both the reminders app and calendar app are showing up as empty, that is, they are not showing any information, in the Today View of the notification center, yet I have multiple reminder lists and calendars on my computer.  What's going on?  How do I select which lists/calendars show up in this section?
    Thanks in advance for whatever help you can offer.

    Ok. So to make things clearer....
    I was able to undelete the yahoo [CICAL] service book so now both my emails are back into play.
    After reading some more posts, this is the problem I'm having (sorry if I'm repeating stuff from my previous comment, I just wasn't sure if I made sense).
    Issues:
    * In the Today theme, my calendar entries are not showing up on the home screen
    * It looks like all my calendar entries went to the "Device Default" calendar setting
    * If I enter a new calendar entry, it says it's using my yahoo email address (which is what it was doing before) and now that entry will show up
    * However, ALL my calendar entries are under the "Device Default" so it would take forever to re input all my calendar entries so that it's posting under my Yahoo account
    Any suggestions on what I should do? Is the only option to just wipe my entire calendar and reinput everything?
    Thanks!

    Why isn't my phone not showing up in itunes?

    Funny, I had the same problem today for the first time.  I had to connect it with the sync cable for it to show.  Normally, it's always there waiting for a wireless sync.  Strange!

  • TS4337 I have a Google calendar that is syncing with my iPad and on my MacBook Air. However, the calendar items are not showing up when I access iCloud via the Internet. Any suggestions?

    I have a Google calendar that is syncing with my iPad and on my MacBook Air. However, the calendar items are not showing up when I access iCloud via the Internet. Any suggestions?

    On the iPad tap Settings > iCloud
    Toggle Documents & Data off then back on then restart your iPad.
    Hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button down until the red slider appears. Slide your finger across the slider to turn off iPhone. To turn iPhone back on, press and hold the On/Off Sleep/Wake button until the Apple logo appears.
    On the iMac open System Preferences > iCloud
    Deselect the box next to Documents & Data then reselect it then restart your iMac.

  • Calendar list view (not just birthdays) off by part of a day

    The list view of the calendar on the iPhone 4 is showing events on the wrong days... Not just birthdays, not just the Exchange calendar I'm syncing, but also not all events. And it's only off by part of a day. The calendar on 10.6 displays all of them correctly, and the day view of the iOS 4 calendar is correct.
    Here's an example:
    Mon Jul 12 2010
    --> 16:35 Event A = correct
    --> 21:46 Event B = correct
    --> 12:00 Event C ==> Wrong. Should be on Jul 13
    Tue Jul 13 2010
    --> 20:00 Event D ==> Should be Wed, Jul 14
    Wed Jul 14 2010
    --> 12:00 Event E ==> Actually Thu Jul 15
    --> 13:30 Event F ==> Actually Thu Jul 15
    Thu Jul 15 2010
    --> 20:00 Event G ==> Right day, but then we have:
    --> 13:30 Event H ==> Actually Fri, Jul 16
    Anyone have a suggestion?

  • Gmail calendar items are not showing up in calendar app

    I've synced my Gmail account and calendar but only items saved to phone calendar is showing up, All my Gmail calendar items aren't there.
    I seem to have synced everything I need to sync but still nothing shows up. Help!

    I'm having the same issue on my Fascinate.  It started Friday (5/20/11) with most of the items on my Google calendar not showing up on my phone.  Some items are still there (although none from my primary calendar).  I created a new item on Google, and it did show up on the phone.  I had the Froyo update pushed out to me on Saturday morning, but doesn't seem to have made any difference  - good or bad.  I've checked all the account settings, sync on, etc. and everything looks OK.  I can do a manual sync, but that doesn't make things show up either.
    Finally, my mother-in-law has the same phone, and is having the exact same problem starting this weekend as well.  She hasn't gotten the Froyo update - so I don't think that is it.

  • ICal on iPhone not showing birthdays or tasks?

    Why is this? Will this be another upgrade?
    What's the purpose of having birthdays on the iCal if you can't see it on your iPhone while shopping for cards?? Also, how do you put multiple birthdays in one contact (and have them show on all calenders)? Since I don't want to make two seperate contacts for each of my married friends, or their kids, how do I get the whole family's birthdates in one contact.

    Why should the only way to get this information on your iphone be via the cable sync? My wife and I share a the same Address Book and iCal. We both have iPhones that are synced via MM. If you use the cable option to sync then any entries in the Address Book or iCal that either one of us put in our iPhones does not go to the others iPhone.
    What is the big problem with Apple not having the actual entries showing up in iCal on a computer showing up the same way on an iPhone and also on the iCal that you view online? The birthdays that are linked from Address Book to iCal on your computer do not show up in the calendar you view in MM online.

  • Calendar app does not show iCloud shared calendars

    This is a tricky problem to describe, so bear with me.  Another iCloud user is the owner of a shared calendar, and has invited me, with read/write credentials (ie, it's my wife and my shared home calendar).  In the Mountain Lion Calendar app, the shared calendar shows up in the sidebar list, and the events are physically in the calendar (ie, the "Shared Home" calendar shown here):
    But, when i try to create a new event, "shared home" does not show up in my selection list:
    Also, if i go back and look at an event that is from the "Shared Home" calendar, it shows up under the generic "Calendar", under "On My Mac":
    Now if I edit one of these already created events, it does indeed push back to iCloud, just as if "Shared Home" was the calendar.
    But why can't I create a new event under "shared home"?
    This is only a problem with the app on my mac.  On the phone, or on iCloud.com it works perfectly.

    I have exactly the same problem. The shared calendar will show up on the list to the left if I open it. And if I create an event, I can drag it to this shared calendar. However even if I've done this, when I open the event it shows it as being in a different calender [with a different colour], but still has the right colour for the right calendar when I close the info box. what's going on?

  • Calendar issue - Does not show entries previous Ja...

    Hi, 
    from beginning of January the calendar of my Lumia does not show any more entries made previously ! It was working  but from I think 7th of January nothing .. The calendar is sync with outlook.com calendar and if I go to http://calendar.live.com I see all my previous data correctly.
    I have tried to do a soft reset , nothing . I have tried to remote outlook.com account and reinsert , nothing !
    I have installed an other calendar application called “chronos calendar” and this one show me some previous data last year but nothing from November-December ... I have written to microsoft community but no more info . I use a lot of the info of calendar for my job and for me it is an important issue !
    I hope a fast solution ...
    Regards,

    Hi,
    You can open a second calendar in a new window and display up to 30 calendars in side-by-side view. You can also overlay calendars to see transparent calendars stacked on top of each other. This view is useful when you want to find a common free time slot
    on several different calendars.
    In Calendar, in the Navigation Pane, right-click the name of another calendar that you want to view.
    Click Open in New Window.
    The calendar that you selected opens in a new Outlook window.
    More information refer to the following article：
    View calendars side-by-side or overlaid
